Face shape · The 7 shapes

Heart face shape

A wide forehead, defined cheekbones and a narrow chin, sometimes pointed.

An inverted-triangle face, with the width on top. The idea is to lighten the forehead and give presence to the lower half.

Frames: Aviator, oval or round frames: more weight below and a light profile on top.
Hair: A side or curtain fringe and volume at chin level.
Near the face: Teardrop earrings or ones wider at the bottom; round or boat necklines.

Frames you can explore

Shadow: Shadow on the temples and under the cheekbones: it lightens the top of the face.

Light: Light in the centre of the forehead, under the eyes, on the bridge of the nose and on the chin.

Always blend: contouring is light and shadow, never lines. Choose a matte shade one or two tones deeper than your skin.

A first, indicative look: a CARO consultation confirms it in person, with real clothes and frames.
